Brief interviews with hideous men stories

"Short stories venturing inside the minds and landscapes that are both recognizable and strange: a boy paralyzed with fear atop a high diving board ; a poet lounging contentedly beside his pool ; and more."@en
"David Foster Wallace delivers a collection of twenty-two hilarious and unique stories."@en
"David Foster Wallace has made an art of taking readers into places no other writer even gets near. In the pages of his novels "Infinite jest" and "The broom of the system" and the collections "Girl with curious hair" and "A supposedly fun thing I'll never do again", he has created as unique a voice and view as any writer at work today, rendering a dazzling array of interior states with delicious insight and humor. In this new collection, the author extends his range and craft in twenty-two stories that intertwine hilarity with an escalating disquiet to create almost unbearable tensions."
